Rio de Janeiro (Wreck)
Rio de Janeiro was a steamboat that sank on June 2, 1853 as a result of a charcoal fire. The crew, after much effort, could not get around the situation, so the captain sailed towards Praia Vermelha to disembark the crew and passengers.
The great attraction of the point is the shipwreck. You can see what is left of the cylinders and pistons of the machines, the wheel axle support, and even the condenser.
